Some disabilities are visible while others are less apparent, but all are under-represented in media and popular culture. Lucky for us, there is a wealth of stories out there just waiting to be heard. This collection includes non-fiction highlighting the lives of trail-blazers, first-person memoirs, and fiction exploring characters with disabilities – all helping to stamp out ableism and tell the full story of the human experience from all perspectives, backgrounds and abilities. Our libraries are chock-full of such stories, and this collection includes many of our favourites that give voice to people living with disability. —The Audible Editors
